Pros

PC base pay is competitve - some say it's higher than average. cos they paying the price to lure you in. For operations, it can be a good life as most work been outsourced to powai

Cons

AEJ business is over 30 entities. management wants analytical work which the infrastructure of the firm does not support and data extraction is ardous and manual. Be prepared for sky high expectations from management.
